Re: Numero Uno : Fiat Uno

What do you think about a custom paint job like they did for a Fiat 500 in Wheeler Dealers:

IMCDb.org: 1969 Fiat 500 L [110F] in "Wheeler Dealers, 2003-2011"

PS: Pics are at the bottom of the page

Re: Numero Uno : Fiat Uno

My Uno had its first servicing (60000 km) since I acquired it in April 2011.
Needless to say,all i had to do was change the following items:
- Engine Oil
- Oil Filter
- Rear Brake Shoes
- Topping up Brake oil
Rest were all in fine condition.
I also got painted the OVRMs in red colour to add zest to my Uno.It goes well with the Abarth Racing lines.
I recently did a drive from Hyderabad to Chennai in my Uno and it gave an average mileage of 18 kmpl on the highway drive.Thats a good record for the books.

Re: Numero Uno : Fiat Uno

Thanks for the updates Ram bhai, must be great to drive in a head turner & that FE figure is surprisingly good, says a lot for the care you take.
BTW Those decals really suit her well especially that Abarth logo.

This Uno holds a special place in my stable,hence it deserves an extra care.

Amazing...

It's such a feeling of pride to see the car maintained in such loving condition...

Good to see that the car is still running well mechanically.

Keep the pics coming.

Re: Numero Uno : Fiat Uno

What a beautiful car. I remember passionately wanting to own an Uno, but never got around to it cause of my busy work schedule. The mods you've done are tasteful in my opinion.

Hope you have many more wonderful miles on this beauty. Safe driving sir.

Thanks my friend.You can own an Uno, even now and perform all these mods.Finding spare parts is also not an issue at all.
